If you’re not bothered about the number 13 then you could save £9,000 off the cost of your home

But buyers who are not put off may be able to find a bargain, as analysis of Zoopla’s website found homes with this number are typically £8,974 cheaper than the average UK property, which is valued at £300,012.

The research, released to coincide with Friday the 13th, found that more than two-fifths of people consider themselves to be superstitious.

Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said they would not exchange or complete on, or even move into, a property on Friday the 13th.

Number 100 tends to be the next most expensive property, with an average value of £311,107, with number two ranked in third place, with a typical value of £308,468.

Lawrence Hall, a spokesman for Zoopla, said there could be opportunities for buyers to secure a bargain on Friday the 13th – a date when some other buyers may be put off making decisions.

He continued: “Our research shows that properties at number 13 are around 3 per cent cheaper than the average UK property, which could provide a significant saving on homes with high asking prices.”
